01849369731 keeps ringing my phone all the time. Tried sorting it with BT but they couldn’t help at all.

About two hours ago, I got a call from 01759369229 warning me that my debit card might be at risk. Then again they rang me up just now with the same story about my card being compromised.

Got a call from someone saying they were from BT, warning me my internet would be cut off in 24 hours because they detected hacking on my connection. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.

Received a call supposedly from TalkTalk warning my internet would be disconnected because of some IP address misuse. Pretty clearly a dodgy scam. Best thing to do is just drop the call and don’t press any buttons they tell you to.

This number looks like it’s from the UK but it’s actually from India! They say things about fixing your computer and stuff. Don’t call them back. It’s from some small village in India.

I got a call from this number earlier today, and after a brief silence, a woman said she was ringing from BT Openreach. When I asked what the call was about, she mentioned something about broadband. The whole thing didn’t go on for more than a minute before she hung up. Definitely feels like a scam.

I’ve been getting loads of scam calls recently, it’s been driving me mad. I called BT and they said they’d forward the number to their fraud team, but nothing much seems to happen. A mate who works in IT once told me to keep a whistle handy and blow it down the phone - apparently it scares them off or hurts their ears! Seriously, shouldn’t our phone companies just block these annoying numbers for us without charging us? It’s about time something was done.

this number called me again, somehow. it was a guy with an asian accent pretending to be from openreach, telling me my router wasn’t matching the phone exchange or something like that. he wanted me to alter my settings on the router and the pc. i dodged it and told him to ring back after quarter of an hour. i actually did get a call then. meanwhile, i rang my phone company who told me straight: “you didn’t do anything, right? it’s a scam.” i’ve blocked the number now but what was weird is they seemed to know quite a bit about my local exchange and stuff.

They ring up quite a bit, sometimes as often as twice or thrice daily. Most times, no one answers, but if you wait a bit, you’ll hear a woman’s voice quietly say “goodbye.”

a lady with an asian accent called saying she was from bt openreach, saying some engineer swapped something in the exchange and kept asking what gadgets i had connected to my router. she was quite pushy and then threatened to disconnect my internet before abruptly ending the call!

In the past hour, ive gotten about five calls from different numbers like 01849934980, some with no caller ID and even some foreign ones. They all said they were from Openreach, talking about my router being on channels 5 and 6. I told a woman on the line that my router wasnt on those channels and i was well aware of which ones it was using. She just told me to buzz off in no uncertain terms. They phoned me a couple more times but hung up straight away both times, with some robot saying "goodbye". Seems like a total scam to me.

I got a call from someone speaking with an Asian accent, claiming to be from BT. They asked me questions about my router, like how many lights were on and what colour they showed. I told them I’m not with BT and made it clear I knew it was a scam, so they just hung up. The number that called me was 01849 934980. Cheers.

I had a call where someone said my internet was set to the wrong channel on my PC, trying to get me to let them remotely access it. Total scam, no doubt about it.

Got a call from someone saying they're from Openreach. It felt dodgy, especially since there was a pause before a voice with an Asian accent came on, and there was loads of noise in the background. I just ended the call straight away.
